Brand new construction in the heart of Carolina Beach, this is the best deal on the island. No HOA and not in a flood zone (huge savings). Thoughtfully crafted with designer finishes throughout, this three-level townhome is low-maintenance living for easy move-in, without buying someone else's problems. Inside, more than 2,000 sq ft of open living space unfolds across three levels. The ground floor features a private guest suite with an en-suite bath and direct backyard access, ideal for visitors, a home office, or multi-generational living, plus a single-car garage and welcoming entry. Upstairs, the main living level is where this home really shines. The kitchen is dialed in with quartz countertops, soft-close cabinetry, a tile backsplash, stainless steel Whirlpool appliances, and a generous island built for both cooking and gathering. Designer lighting, upgraded trim detail, shiplap accents, and LVP flooring throughout give the space a finished, curated feel you won't find in most new construction at this price point. The great room and dining area flow seamlessly onto two decks -- front and back. Having a true dining space is something most other townhomes don't have these days and you'll regret not having one. The top floor is where you decompress. The primary suite offers a roomy footprint, dual vanities, and a fully tiled walk-in shower with a framed glass door. A second guest bedroom with its own en-suite bath and a conveniently located laundry room round out the level. Out back, you'll find something genuinely rare for a Carolina Beach townhome: a fully sodded, fenced-in yard with room to spread out. A large deck, covered patio, and outdoor shower make this the perfect second home or rental property -- whether you're firing up the grill, setting up a hot tub, or just enjoying a yard that feels like yours. New construction means energy-efficient systems, Hardie-style exterior materials, and the peace of mind that comes with never living in someone else's footsteps. Add in strong short-term rental potential and a location just minutes from the beach, the boardwalk, the island greenway trail, restaurants, and Freeman Park -- and this is the kind of investment that checks every box.

9 West Fayetteville Street, Wrightsville Beach, NC This property offers two distinct values: a fully functional beach cottage in place today, and a 5,000 square foot lot with the potential for substantial new construction. The existing home, known as the Blue Zone house, is a grandfathered-in duplex with two separate units, each offering three bedrooms and one bathroom, for a combined sleeping capacity of 12. The property sits three houses from the public sound access and one block from the beach access, within easy walking distance of Johnnie Mercer's Pier and downtown Wrightsville Beach. Features include a reverse osmosis water filtration system on the lower level, an outdoor shower, a shaded upper deck with peek-a-boo views of Banks Channel, and a backyard well suited to evening gatherings and sunset views. The home as it is generates $100,000-$120,000 in rental income yearly. The lot is zoned R-1 at 50 by 100 feet. While the current duplex is grandfathered in, any new construction on the property is limited to single-family use. Under current ordinance, the property supports up to 3,500 square feet of gross living area with a maximum building height of 40 feet, within setbacks that accommodate a compliant new build. To illustrate the property's potential, an AI-generated architectural render has been prepared depicting a possible 3,500 square foot, three-story single-family residence with a rooftop deck, four bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, and a three-car garage. The concept shows sound views to the rear and ocean views to the front, with the ocean a block away. This render is a conceptual illustration only, not an architectural plan or a guarantee of what may be built. Any buyer pursuing new construction should consult a licensed architect and the Town of Wrightsville Beach to confirm buildable specifications. Shown by appointment.
